Leggiero Records deserve recognition which shall be shared by the outstanding performer, Richard Locker. Cello masterpieces by Bloch, Bruch, Ravel, as well as other great composers make this selection very unique.
I really enjoy this purchase. Anyone familiar with the torturous history of Jews struggling in a Gentile world will find many of the slow and sad notes reminescent of their tearful plight. These composers are all top notch and the music is wonderful to have playing lightly in the house as you go about your business.
Ernest Bloch is one of my favorite composers. The musicianship is marvelous. His piece, Prayer, is a very moving piece of music as is the rest of the album. This is a wonderful album. The music is beautiful.
I just trusted the previous reviews. Admittedly, I purchased this CD without really knowing what to expect. I am very disappointed.
I did not find anything about this music "beautiful". Now I know why they do not provide samples to listen to. "Beautiful".
The only two songs I found pleasant to listen to were "Zilberts: Reb Dovid'l" and "Meyerowitz: Gelt (Wie Shlecht es is Ohn Gelt)". Try to find samples to listen to before you purchase this CD to see if you like this kind of music. Most of it is very dark and depressing.
A few of the songs sound like something you would hear in a horror movie.
Toda raba. I love this CD and have bought several for friends. Music is so very beautiful.
